I've never had a problem spamming Pull on a Capture target, or having someone chain jump attacks so he can never get up. Both of those aside as a Mag, Bullet Attractor works as well as on anything else so you can just leisurely stroll toward the target while holding down the fire button in his general direction for double damage. It's also worth noting that he has a maximum range on his "run the hell away" script that you can abuse if the map allows it. Unless you cross it he'll just stand still forever - I was soloing a desert map with the MK I for the mastery and ended up emptying a few clips into both targets from a mile away and both targets just sat there and played bullet sponge before falling over.

I've MPrimed the capture target and vaporized the body. Still got the "good jerb, now go catch the other one" so I guess Lotus just sweeps up the bits into your Pokéball automatically.

Mind Control definitely works too, as I have a buddy who when playing Nyx always hits the capture target with it so we can more effectively store our ammo in the target's face while he just stands there doing nothing.

Capture problems? Solution: use Rhino. Rhino is basically the solution to any problem. Rhino loving owns.

The real reason Rhino is overpowered is because it's the only frame immune to : DE : effects at present it seems.

I think Drakgoon got stealth 'nerfed' so it uses shotgun ammo now. What's the consensus between the Lecta and Prova?

So I rolled out my Nova for the first time last night. I would categorize her as obscenely fun. Happy DE error- I was running my Nova for some missions on some infestations. On the last survival mission, the squad agrees that we'll aim for 40 minutes. I switch to my Mag Prime. We make 40 minutes, at which point I return to my equipment screen to see that I now have my Nova equipped... leveled up to 30 (along with all the other stuff I'd unequipped for the ~*~serious business~*~ of gaming a survival infested mission.) Level 1-30, one hour. Time to Forma I guess.

You can definitely jump-kick them, I do it all the time.

Some PS4 goons and I were running a T3 defense, and when we got to the final wave, we were halfway done when suddenly our game crashed. Lost everything. Ugh. Moral of the story: don't have too many snowglobes up at a time.

You must be cursed or something. Did you cross paths with a witch this week? Walk under a ladder? I have no problems with using CC on him as Banshee. Sonar his room, run at him, Sonic Boom him to the ground, shoot shoot down. I've had CC occasionally not work (maybe one in fifty times?) for whatever odd reason, but nothing as consistent as you're seeing.

Loki can't Switch Teleport them, either, though you can just turn invisible, sprint up to him and do a jump attack to knock him on his rear end, then beat him to death with crits.

What is up with Oberon's proportions? You don't normally notice because of the loincloth thing but his torso is a barrel compared to his relatively thin legs.

Haven't played in a while, I'm not sure what to aim for weapon wise. I have Volt, Burston and Orthos all leveled to 30, currently leveling a Cronos and Lato Vandal for mastery and farming Xini for a Banshee helm since I already got all the other parts. Are Kunai still the go-to secondary weapon upgrade? Also, what's the best way to get control modules?

Take your shiny new Tier 1 Mobile Defense Key and jump into the Void with your week-old MAG. Easily the toughest bit of gaming I've experienced in a long while.

As consolation, if you do this at level 15+ still only using Pull, it's trivial assuming you max power efficiency. zgrowler2 fucked around with this message at 18:14 on Jan 13, 2014 |

I hadn't noticed that idea, but you're right that he really does look like a bipedal deer. That's a really neat idea and I hope they do more creative ideas like that in the future. I like that they're departing a bit more into outlandish designs. Also wikipedia tells me Oberon is the king of the fairies in Renaissance literature, so I wonder if one down the line will be Titania. Maybe the bird-themed frame that they mentioned a year ago? And then make it a vulture to subvert the association between fairies and the more colorful song birds. Or an albatross if they want to be literary about it. On a side note, Oberon is actually a pretty good frame. Not Rhino/Nova good, but he fits right in with most of the frames. It's refreshing to have a new frame that's reasonably well thought out after Nekros and Valkyr, while still not being totally broken. chumbler fucked around with this message at 18:26 on Jan 13, 2014 |

Of course, I've only yet played him, Excalibur and Ash so I have little to compare to, but Obe's a cool dude. Hallowed Ground is great in Infested defence missions, you can stack a couple of them around the target and they'll fry any nasties trying to tear the thing down. The healing thing is always useful, and Reckoning is a great straightforward "oh poo poo" room cleaner. Most importantly he looks loving rad with his horns and super-shiny armor and all that.

If you're going to buy a frame get Vauban, you can't farm missions for his parts. From what people I play with say, Valkyr isn't the most ridiculously overpowered, but is still fun to play.

Built Latron and Burston Prime, with Mag and Frost Prime in the oven, and found a Dakra blade.  Now just need to grind T1 exterminates for the blueprint and farm up fifteen cells to make Dakra Prime. But I want my multihit gold space saber, so I'm going to do it anyways. They'd better really fix melee in the melee 2.0 thing; I'll be unhappy if the gold space saber's never more than a decoration on my frame's back. [Edit: Oh, and I think Valkyr sucks fairly hard. The Spiderman power is the only thing she has that's of any real use, her shields are godawful, and her high armor is meaningless. Her scream power just buffs melee speed, her stun power drains her own already-crappy shield reserves to use, and her ultimate isn't bad but is worse than most. Plus the double-V polarity slots are useless on her, so she more or less requires at least one forma straight out of the box.] Valatar fucked around with this message at 22:09 on Jan 13, 2014 |

It was the 2nd frame I built after a trinity and I still have yet to get it to 30 because I can't stand playing her. Her shields suck, her powers are mediocre (Hysteria is probably the worst ultimate since it only hits 1 enemy at a time). Rip line is ok for getting to tight spots and pulling allies around but nova has wormhole which is much better for that anyways. I plan on somehow getting mine to level 30 then selling it because the frame spot is more valuable than her. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a Nova. Your teammates will love you.

Dropped for a PS4, and certainly do like how freakin' gorgeous everything looks. I've replaced the lovely starter rifle, and I'm muddling my way through the mod / crafting system with the help of the wiki. One thing does confuse me though, sometimes smaller, blue bars pop up with a random number ( Usually about 60-ish? ) and I have no idea what they are.  I know the PS4 version is pretty drat buggy, but it's not consistent enough to be team-mates doing damage. I also can't hit poo poo half the time with my sword because everything backpedals too fast.

I'm in the same boat, only have Valkyr to 28 because I just hate using her. The only other frames I haven't built yet are Seryn, Nekros, and Banshee, and thus far I've preferred literally every other frame I've used to Valkyr.
